Energy financial reconciliation system and method

Abstract

An energy financial reconciliation method, comprising displaying at least two electricity options for selection by a user, each electricity option identifying attributes associated with the electricity used to process hydrogen fuel and determining an amount of funds to be transferred to an electricity provider based on the amount of purchased hydrogen fuel and the selected electricity option.

1 . An energy financial reconciliation method, comprising:
 displaying at least two electricity options for selection by a user, each electricity option identifying attributes associated with the electricity used to process hydrogen fuel; and   determining an amount of funds to be transferred to an electricity provider based on the amount of purchased hydrogen fuel and the selected electricity option.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising enabling a user to select the electricity option at a hydrogen fueling station. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising enabling a user to remotely select the electricity option on a user device networked to a hydrogen fueling station. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the attribute identifies a method for generating the electricity. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the attribute identifies a cost for generating the electricity. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the attribute identifies the identity of the electricity provider. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising enabling a user to create an electricity blend comprising a combination of electricity options. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising tracking the amount of purchased hydrogen fuel in order to determine a portion of funds to be distributed to the electricity provider. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising tracking the amount of purchased hydrogen fuel in order to identify a portion of funds to be distributed to a primary electricity provider and a supplemental electricity provider. 
     
     
         10 . An energy financial reconciliation system, comprising:
 an energy financial reconciliation module configured to display at least two electricity options for selection by a user, wherein each electricity option identifies an attribute associated with the electricity used to process hydrogen fuel, and wherein the energy financial reconciliation module determines an amount of funds to be transferred to an electricity provider based on an amount of purchased hydrogen fuel and the selected electricity option.   
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the energy financial reconciliation module is configured to enable a user to select the electricity option at a hydrogen fueling station. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 10 , further comprising a user device networked to the energy financial reconciliation module, the user device enabling a user to remotely select the electricity option. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the wherein the attribute identifies a method for generating the electricity. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the attribute identifies a cost for generating the electricity. 
     
     
         15 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the attribute identifies the identity of the electricity provider. 
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the energy financial reconciliation module is configured to enable a user to create an electricity blend comprising a combination of electricity options. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the energy financial reconciliation module is configured to track the amount of purchased hydrogen fuel to identify a portion of funds to be distributed to the electricity provider. 
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the energy financial reconciliation module is configured to track the amount of purchased hydrogen fuel to identify a portion of funds to be distributed to a primary electricity provider and a supplemental electricity provider. 
     
     
         19 . An energy financial reconciliation system, comprising:
 a profiler module enabling a user to create a blended electronic option based on an attribute associated with electricity used to process hydrogen fuel; and   an aggregation module reconciling a portion of funds to be transferred to an electricity provider supplying the electricity for generating the hydrogen fuel.   
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 19 , wherein the attribute comprises one of a method of generating the electricity, an organization with which the electricity provider is associated, an identity of the electricity provider, and a cost of the electricity used to process the hydrogen fuel.
